This winch can develop tremendous pulling forces and if used unsafely or improperly

will notice headings such as Caution, Warning and Danger. Pay particular attention
to these headings as they are written for your safety.. Ultimately, safe operation of this
product rests with you, the operator.
1. Your winch is designed with a bolt pattern that is standard in this class of winches. Many
winch mounting kits are available that utilize this bolt pattern for the most popular ATV's and
mounting channels.
2. Regardless of the mounting kit you use, ensure that your winch is mounted on a flat surface
so that the three major sections (motor, drum and gear housing) are properly aligned. Proper
alignment of the winch will allow even distribution of the full rated load.

4. Connect the battery (4' 1") and motor (5' 9") leads. Connect the red positive (+) to the in-facing
terminal marked (+) on the motor and the black negative (-) to the out-facing terminal marked (-) on
the motor. Then connect the red positive (+) lead from the power switch to the positive (+) terminal
of the vehicles 12 volt battery. Connect the black negative (-) lead from the power switch to the
negative (-) terminal of the battery. (Caution: Batteries contain gases which are flammable and
explosive. Wear eye protection during installation and remove all jewelry. Do not lean over battery
